  1. Round bottom with a hole in the center, red in colour, and a capacity of 10L or more

  2. They must be silver in color

  3. Must automatically fill with water

  4. Must be attached to a fire hose

The correct answer is: Round bottom with a hole in the center, red in colour, and a capacity of 10L or more

Fire buckets onboard larger vessels need to comply with Canadian Small Vessel Regulations by having a round bottom with a hole in the center, being red in colour, and having a capacity of 10L or more. The other options, such as being silver in color, automatically filling with water, or being attached to a fire hose, are not requirements stated in the regulations. Therefore, they are incorrect options. It is important to follow the specific guidelines set forth by the Canadian Small Vessel Regulations in order to ensure proper fire safety measures on board larger vessels.
